\nThe next day, President Trump posted (and later deleted) the following message on social
\n
\nPam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, \u201csame old story as last time, all talk, no action. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam “Shifty\u201d Schiff, Leticia??? They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done.\u201d Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S. Attorney, in Virginia, with a really bad Republican past. A Woke RINO, who was never going to do his job. That’s why two of the worst Dem Senators PUSHED him so hard. He even lied to the media and said he quit, and that we had no case. No, I fired him, and there is a GREAT CASE, and many lawyers, and legal pundits, say so. Lindsey Halligan is a really good lawyer, and likes you, a lot. We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility. They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!! President DJT\u2079
\nLess than 48 hours after President Trump’s post, on September 22, 2025, the Attorney General issued an order \u201cauthorizing Lindsey Halligan to be the Interim United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia during the vacancy in that office\u201d (\u201cSeptember 22 Order\u201d). Att’y Gen. Order No. 6402-2025. The September 22 Order cites only 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 546 as the basis for Ms. Halligan’s appointment. Id.
